Monterey Books LLC

Store of Books & Gifts is a small independent bookstore tucked into a strip mall in valley and I found it by chance while driving around. They have a surprisingly well curated selection of local poetry, used vinyl, and artisan stationery. The owner gave me recommendations for authors from Asia and even chatted about upcoming in-store events. I bought a rare paperback poetry anthology and a hand-made journal; both were priced fairly. The shop is modestly lit, but feels intimate and inviting. I’ll definitely stop by again when I’m in the area.

This is not a bookstore and they didnt have stationary items, it seems like a rent a p.o. box place.

Some Chinese man was VERY RUDE. I called to cancel a plan. He didn’t understand me so he said something and he HUNG UP on me. Just because I didn’t speak Chinese he was disrespectful to me. I think his name was Simon. Not sure. But RUDE.

I like it

Good

垃圾地方，千万不要去，各种商业欺诈，等律师信，交了费，把钱退出来，换别人账户，新来的华人千万不要去这里，太恶心了

垃圾中的垃圾！
